Screaming Silently

I scream but you don’t hear me No, please don’t go The darkness encases me Please just stay I promise to change I promise to try But you don’t hear me I cry but you don’t see me Tears of silver scars The darkness engulfs me Droplets of hurt Thinking of loss Thinking of grief But you don’t see me I shout but you don’t hear me Why hurt me? What did I do? My rage fuels me Stabbing me once Stabbing me twice But you don’t hear me I write but you don’t read me Deafened mind of ignorance Immaturity My pain tortures me Message unread Message read But you don’t read me I vent but you don’t hear me This is what hurts me Alone with anxiety Aching vibrates through me No problem here No problem there But you don’t hear me I weep but you don’t see me Pretending to not see Wet cheeks of sorrow As loneliness languishes me Heaving sighs Heaving mind But you don’t see me I whisper but you don’t hear me Please help Save me Despair devours me Silently screaming Silently slipping But you don’t hear me
